Using Electronic Databases
The NACC Library provides access to a wide range of resources in
electronic format via the World Wide Web.
Alabama Virtual Library
With a home access card, a student enrolled in distance
education/dual enrollment classes at Northeast Alabama Community
College may access the Alabama Virtual Library (AVL) from any
remote site with internet access. The AVL may be accessed at
http://www.avl.lib.al.us/ The AVL provides online access to
encyclopedia, full-text newspaper, magazine, and journal
articles, and full-text reference tools.
Since this service is reserved for state residents or students,
no online registration is available to the general public. As a
NACC student, you may contact a NACC faculty or staff member,
and he/she will provide you with an AVL card, which will include
a user name and password. Also, your local public library can
provide you with an AVL card.
